02/28/07: WSX Cancellation Seems Certain

It appears as if the decision has been made to cancel the Wrestling Society X series. This is thought to be due to a drop in ratings. Word going around MTV today was that the series was to be finished "effective immediately." The MTV office seems to have no plans of a renewal, and there are still six unaired episodes from the original filming. The ratings for the show started off strong but dropped each week to the point where it wasn't even meeting the night's average on the network. As is usually the case with wrestling shows, MTV expected the show to outperform other programming in order to keep its slot. Big Vision Entertainment will retain rights to WSX and could market it to other networks or directly to DVD. (PWI)
